Crypto

In January 2001 I published Crypto, a full-length book that tells the fascinating –and important — story of the revolution in cryptography. The publisher is Viking, and David Kahn, who is the master historian in the field, called it “Cryptography’s Soul of a New Machine.” The reviews were great. (For instance, Ben Hammersley of the Times of London wrote, “Crypto is a triumph. I urge you to read it… To combine science and political intrigue and make it a compulsive page-turner is a good trick but to make it essential reading for the age as well is a mark of brilliance.”
